March 28, 2006: CNET just reviewed the latest DLSR from Pentax - the horrifyingly named *ist DS2. Seriously, even if I wanted to buy one of these, I wouldn’t know how ask the salesperson if they have any in stock. How would you to pronounce “*ist?” Is the asterisk silent? They never covered that in my phonics lessons…

Anyway, CNET find it to be pretty good DLSR. Small and light. They gave it a grade of 7.2 (out of ten). No pricing information was given, so it’s hard to compare it against other players in the field.

Here’s a quote from their review, you can read the whole thing here:

Like the DS, the Pentax *ist DS2 is a relatively light but robust and easy-to-navigate digital SLR, with 6- megapixel resolution, an impressively bright viewfinder, responsive 11-point autofocus, and a wide array of advanced automatic and manual features that should please longtime SLR enthusiasts without befuddling newcomers. The picture quality is generally solid, with minimal noise at typical settings and nearly no chromatic aberration. A minor weakness is the DS2’s erratic automatic white balance, but overall, the DS2 is a hearty, well-performing, intuitive, and easy-to-handle camera. For those approaching the dSLR market with a bag of Pentax lenses–or no lenses at all–it’s a camera to consider.
